Poppy Flower
Such a close-up is quite challenging because you have to catch a moment with as little wind as possible, which is quite rare here in the north. Additionally, the poppies don't stay this attractive for long.

Mohnblume
Eine solche Nahaufnahme ist schon etwas schwieriger, da man einen möglichst Windarmen Moment erwischen muss, was hier im Norden doch ziemlich selten ist. Dazu kommt noch, das die Mohnblumen so ansehnlich nicht lange blühen.

Rapeseed in backlight
Rapeseed in the backlight of the setting sun, just a few days ago. Who doesn't know the beautifully blooming rapeseed fields? This year, they are a bit rarer in my area. But crop rotation is important. Have you ever tried photographing it like this?
